They call me all the time but my cell lets me know the number, and I have number ID set for "collection", so I don't answer. They are calling me for an old speeding ticket from ICBC (insurance corporation British Columbia) . The fact is, I don't owe them any thing. I told them that. I paid all fines to get a license back so that I could get me Harley out of the impound. I have a stub saying I have paid.
Also in BC, under the "law and equity act", it says that I don't have to except third party arbitration. Meaning that they have no legal status to collect if I don't agree.
I don't have to contract with them. Under contract law, once they are told I do not accept their arbitration, they have no right to keep contacting me. Now all I have to do is send them a form letter that if they continue to harass me, they can be held libel. The only contract I accept is that if they call they w8ill be charged $50/ call, and $50/ minute or any part of a minute.
This should be fun. All I now need is their address and send the form letter by registered mail.
It should go something like this,
"OK fine, you want to contract with me. By contract you are now responsible for all contact, and there will be a charge for every contact. We have no binding contract, and you can not force me into a contract. As such you are bothering me, It's called "harassment" and I am in no obligation to contract with you. Therefor you will be charged $500/ phone call, and $500/minute thereafter. $200 dollars / letter, and $2000 / response if required by request. These are nonnegotiable. This is my contract if you so chose to peruse continued contact. Personally, I prefer no contact to contract with your corporation and under the rules of UCC code, I can not be forced to contract with you. "
Signed with two witnesses.
If they call again, they will enter into a binding contract.
So once sent, if they contact me again, I will answer the phone, where a new contract will be initiated by them. Record the phone call for proof, ask who they are and what they want. Inform them of the form letter sent by registered mail. I again do not have to accept to contract with them, and they can be held accountable. Only thing is , I will have to take them to court, where they can be charged again for my time. $2000/hr plus expenses and court costs.
The more people that do this, the less likely they are to even initiate contact. I doubt it they will ever call again.
Good luck!
Lightwave, let the light shine on in and blind them with the truth.
